Australia day is celebrated,
By all who have made this place their home…
To acknowledge this great country
No matter where you roam…
As a multicultural nation,
It has a significant meaning to you and me…
As each person has made a different journey,
On how as Australians they came to be…
We’ve been through some hard times,
No doubt there’s more to come…
Just stick together when we’re down and out,
It’s the general rule of thumb…
Look out for your mate,
Your neighbour or your friend…
Then we have at least half a chance,
To make it to the end…
Let’s Celebrate, Not Procrastinate…
